As the defending Eastern Conference champions look to extend their championship window, this summer will have a big impact.
Over the years, Anders Bjork has become a well-known name to Bruins fans. The young forward has had high expectations since entering the Bruins system but been held back by injuries. Last season the Notre Dame product had three points in 20 games before a shoulder injury ended his season. During the 2019-2020 campaign, however, Bjork has started to live up to expectations.
The Bruins agreed to a one-year extension with netminder Jaroslav Halak on Friday evening.
David Krejci, who could have just one year left in Boston, has spoken out regarding his future in the NFL.
When the MLB season does begin, the Boston Red Sox will have a new opening day starter for the first time since 2017. Over the past two years, that honor has fallen to Chris Sale, however, he will miss all of the 2020 seasons due to Tommy John surgery. Due to Sale’s absence, Eduardo Rodriguez will most likely be named the opening day starter. The former top prospect is coming off a career year and will now have even higher expectations.
Jaroslav Halak is set to become a free agent this summer and Dan Vladar is coming off his best season since being drafted.
With the fate of the season uncertain due to the coronavirus, talented Bruins goalie Jaroslav Halak’s future in Boston is unclear amidst a standout campaign.
The twenty-year-old is still one of the Bruins best prospects and projects to be an offensive weapon in the future.
For the Boston Red Sox, the 2019 season was one to forget. After winning it all in 2018, the Red Sox finished third in the AL East and missed the playoffs for the first time in three years. The defending champs were besieged by injuries and a bullpen that struggled for the majority of the season. Although the Red Sox pitching struggled, some young players such as Josh Taylor stepped up. While the start of the 2020 season has been delayed, their optimism that the season will be played and Taylor will be an important piece for Boston.
Yesterday, the organization continued to add to improve their depth as the Providence Bruins announced that they had agreed to terms with Brady Lyle and Alex-Olivier Voyer on two- year AHL deals.
The Boston Bruins are optimistic for the return of their season. However, they’re not as optimistic about the return of a fan favorite on the blue line.
